I had that. I must say I loved that thing. I used it to death, although that said I only really got around 5-6 years out of it. Replaced the battery once the motherboard once, the fan once, the charger twice. Hmmmm.
It performed absolutely admirably throughout its lifetime though and it had a nice big screen even if it made it quite a chonker. I really appreciate the expansion slot because I was able to give it USB3.0 slots even though it didn't have any when it came out.
Laptop of Theseus? Is the laptop the shell or is it it's motherboard?
I have a 2015 Macbook Retina (mid 2014) that I only have to replace the charger, replace the screen (staingate), and the speaker.
